Interesting fact

The 25 Öre coin from Sweden, minted in 1907 during the reign of King Oscar II, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of silver (.600), it weighs only 2.42 grams, which is relatively light for a coin of its size and metal composition. This is due to the fact that the coin was designed with a thin rim, which allowed for a smaller diameter and therefore a lighter weight. This design choice was likely made to reduce the cost of production and make the coin more practical for everyday use.
